Package: lm-sensors
Version: 1:3.3.4-2
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream
Hi,
Please note the following:
"September 5th, 2013: Hardware breakage reported Over the past few months,
we had several reports of sensors-detect causing serious trouble on recent
hardware (most notably laptops.) We still don't know what exactly is
happening, and while it might be reversible, we don't know how, so in
practice this is equivalent to the hardware itself being broken. The
symptoms are that the display starts misbehaving ( wrong resolution or
wrong gamma factor.) We have mitigated the risk by changing the default
behavior of sensors-detect to no longer touch EDID EEPROMs and then to
no longer probe graphics adapters at all unless the user asks for it.
We urge maintainers to backport changesets r6040 and r6084 to all Linux
distributions which are still shipping lm-sensors 3.3.2 or older.
Versions 3.3.3 and newer are not affected."

This seems pretty serious and I thought it warranted a bug report. I've read
through the changelogs and while 1.3.4 is in unstable, stable and even old
stable
still have versions prior to 1.3.3
